ths booout organizations need to hold folks accountable for their performance or else they stop becoming effective. .. >> then conservative groups and the republican party have assets over $100 billion and outspent

conservatives seven to one. this is a little over an hour. la >> thank you. i want to begin by thanking c-spannd brian lamb for filming this lunch and presentation. you'd have to benserti orowthe media world is so dominated by the political left which can't abide two sides to a conversation. there are really onlo etfo aseiv thhaulvebo significantly up the ratings list, and one of them is the fox news channel, and the other is c-span. you also may not know this, but brialamb is aixon bl. thixhisese

sent by nixon to try to get the pbs to observe the letter of the law that created it be fair, objective and balanced in en affgrng so informed c-span which is funded by cable companies -- he formed cpan which is funded by cable companies. that's the only way you're going to get fairness in our universe. doteitatatth sc itr he in which the abuse of language plays a major role in shaping the outcomes. defenders of liberty appear on these political battlefields as we a dndofhe sl us. yet, in fact, we are the party of change and reform. we are thearty that wants to

stop the cancer of government power which is radlod fomat w quedus we are the party that wants to rein in the nanny state, protect the integrity of the ballot box, remove race categories and race inutio aawfrom o th m tiad medicine and promote educational choice for the poorest children in our schools. it is our points on all of these battlends who have created the ineasinglyolleivis dree uso. s wveert e categories of race into our lives and into our laws and institutions. who have put half the country on the government payroll and are eager put the other half o as wl. ths,eng ti lexicon it is they who

are called liberals, democrats and progressives, even though they are none of the above. liberals are not liberal atll th'r inle,ot . fu o , icly for us. if we seek race-neutral institutions and color blind laws, they call us racist. of if we point to the thre sed by islicans, t ula phobes and bigots. the only attitudes our opponents hold that could reasonably be called liberal under sympathies they exhibit fo domestic fohepera o voter fraud and the denigrators of religious faith, for the thug erie of government unions and the an anarchistobs who seek to reverselection results they

don't like. lilswhago f munists befo , agetrol our lives, to make us better. no more big gulps or incandescent lightbulbs or untad lemonade stands. this all reflectshe reality to mention. inside every liberal is a totalitarian screaming to get out. [laughter] and justas liberals aren't ho tmawsy edict.ts are no when they control the congress, they rule without advice or consent. when they losetate elections, they descend on legislatures to shut down the very process of deliberation and debate. un ynkhaiv the discredited ideas of karl marx and jimmy carter is the way

to the happy future. the book that jacob and i have obatth draich we call "thene progressives are not the party of the powerless and the poor as they claim. among the 12 richest lawmakers in congress, democrats outnumber republicans three to oe. nineteen of the twenty richt zip cod aca me lion's share of their political contributions to democrats, some as high as 86%. wall street rais $100 million to elebara o20. but it's not just at election time that democrats display their muscle, and that's the focus of "the ne leviathan." it is in the space betwee eltion ithatt

ame ptiarnt atdeat swir real supremacy and spending their political dollars. "the new leviathan" is a nme we have given to a left-wing network of billion dollar gomen grassrootsvocacyhink radical groups and constitute the largest, most powerful litical machine ever assembled. the agendas of this new an ever-expanding state and ever more intrusive state, collectivist rights over individual rights, the erosion of american sovereignty and the undermining of our nional defenses. e in cofft ngia adf 115 tax-exempt foundations with more than $100 billion in assets.

how does this compare with conservativesos? eftndns collectively are ten times as large as the conservative ones. the left is allrantic about evhit etsbroers andheiil korrsve tax-exempt fundation. its assets are $239 million. that may sound like a lot of money, but theord foundation ash tch brothers. and, of course, the gates foundation is three times as large as the ford foundation. anf sewhhe new levihanet so gnanous nn

t are big banks and permanent banks, but they fund networks of activist organizations. so if wre talking about 1 nkrekibo tey sands of left-wing organizations that they fund. the answer to the question of how they got so large is in part that they took over, th the leftook overexng aca unon erdoti is a good example. henry ford was not what you would call a liberal or a leftist. [laughter] quite the contrary. when hry ford ii resigned as he did froheoaf t rd fat hte a letter saying, complaining that the ford fodation had devoted its money to attacking, to

frnri,vag the very sem the er, cal sm cated the wealth in the first place. and that's only one. that's the big one, but that's only one. the mcarthu foundation was chs mhuo h of ghngubn. but his children were neo-communists, and they changed the whole direction of the fibybo meratation despite st e uswere created by a philadelphia family, the pew family, which made its wealth in oil and can was extremely right wing. but they madethe mistake of inur wy

knew to be president, and before they knew it the staff of the foundation, he was succeeded by rebecca riel who is a nurse and who announced whenshe ok oveh iso t oruehe '60s and turned it into a left-wing foundation. when jacob and i published this book, it came out a coue weeks aserns earerom on rwe the week for the washington times, and rebecca rimmel wrote a letter complaining and saying that in her letter,wellfirst of all, we had accuse pnted out atpe t,h once-conservative foundation was the largest funder of the tides foundation. the tides foundation is $179 million foundation, was formed by two leftis.

an iballhem the creator of ssou you give money without giving your name, or they hide your name to the tides foundation so they can give it to really radical causes. anif youlook a the li of unon tunti y llnd t venerable foundations of what were once-venerable foundations in american public life. it's not only ford, but it's also rockefeller or, carnegie, tharl he level of a billion dollar, and i haven't even mentioned the soros foundation which is twice as big as the biggest conservative fountion, d it a billion llouio

>> the -- i forgot where i was going right here. ah, becca rimme ,s. sahere lst funder of tides. she said, well, we haven't funded tides in ten years, not since 2002, except for a $400,000 grant for dental, whatever, chity. d she saweenevd t s heors and when i read this, i said think of the arrogance of lying so brazenly when you could just go up on the web and find out that she's a liar. theewamimped erledb t, s er o articles in the "philadelphia inquirer" about 15 years ago which was a series of how the pew trustsere taken over. th actually are which is, you

know, progressives, neo-communists,eople wse goal is to dismantle the free enterprise, capitalist stem ri.yfivl eyid describe, they did quote the pew family mightily complaining. then i sent my researcher up to the web, and immediately he found out, of course, that pew had gin millions of darto s hetplf years. but they're so "cavuto" in their ability to -- confident in their ability to get away withying thheeshr this book, almost -- i don't know if it's half the book, but an awful lot

of the book is, are charts. mike bauer did these chas which have all the foundations and allhat iwillcahec3 ttnsecry organizations that carry on the political work. mike bauer went through 10,000 foundation records to isolate these radicalndns ei donees. this is just the tip of the iceberg, however. because as i said, these frm er is a 501(c)(3). now, i've been aware ever since i've got into this field that the 501(c)(3)s when you think of, youknow, whether it's the naacp, the aclu,th

al t are really a shadow political universe. because whenever there's a debate, i realized this when i was joinedith to panels debating prop 209 in the state back in 2000. it was an initiative, and it was to end race preferences. now, that's your basic political debate. and i ect tc ec. there was a big battle, for example, the republicans didn't want ward connolly's initiative on the ballot because that would bring out the left to attack it and forth. so it is politics. d heerider estis of the aclu, a 501(c)(3), and the naacp, a

501(c)(3). and it was then that i realized this whole shadow political universe carries on the elontical debate between nsti hit an that's your basic, if you're a conservative, this is a very ugly, sleazy interference with, you know, creativity, actually creating jobs as crtors and lining the pockets of your favorite causes. but this iswhere politics takes place. there are 553 -- don't remember all these figures -- 553 anti-free market, environmental the are gazatisat amrpio

capitalism. that's, they cause global warming. and forget whether global warming is something that we need to be concerned about at the moment. there is also a huge controv buo,seanioherit'san ma, aortions did it, and the solution is massive government control of your life. e t pele wpo ade hoouit n estl these 501(c)(3)s. brought up cap and trade. what is cap and trade? well, it means what these people nt to do is they want the government to tell you how often you can turn on your light switch in your home. they'rin regulate ha dierhis absolutely everything. how far you can travel in your car. it's the greatest threat to individual freedom that we're facing.

inesha a gatilihe environmental defense council. and a creature of the ford foundation. it's now worth $139 million itself, but it's ford that launched it and created it. leinnvmee 553 an-freke gati all tax exempt. they have $9.5 billion in assets. how big is that? well, the environmental protection agency of the federal leha tnt, itsnnual budts on the other side this debate, as opposed to the 553, are 32 free market environmenl aril.ns,ndtheiss got?

$9.5 billion versus 38 million. mike bauer did the arithmetic for me, that's 249 tis. [lte trgt?e, just think of the environmental argument. now, obama has said we told the new yorker thathe cterpiece of his condadston in bim change. now, it wasn't just two, three years ago that the leading clate scientists in the world were exposed for cooking the fayi t en climate change because it was going against them. we have been in a cooling for ten years. so you might think this is a little problematic make,

assume it as fact and me e ereyo mira. th theower.an not only do they have the 9.5 billion in assets, these left-wing foundations, but, of course, when democratic gislators put through goal wh i do u tnk they fund? they provide money for, quote, environmental organizations which turns out to benti-free market, anti-capitalist, controyour-life, left-wing hochroental ornizaons. 's $570 million annually. it's a $570 million annual budget for these left-wing organizations. and how ch do they give to the coervati ones? ile ytodoha it the same thing with immigration organizations.

how have we gotten to a point -- maio who i think is, you know, would be a great vice presidential candidate. he is a spectacular figure in the consvativema t f referred -- of course, they were upset by obama's unilateral amnesty -- but they referred to dieseoosirishammigran. cus? [laughter] no, they never applied for them. these are illegal aliens. but it's polically third rail, at least that's the way they feel, to use illegalalieth

lyur dip ophoeom ss the border and stayed here without going through the process of citizenship. that's how powerful this new juna fed b 1 foundations with $100 billion behind them and 553 -- well, that's on the environment, thers 117 open brs tiizipeig grn das. i would give you just a little story so you see how this happened. the mexican-american legal defense fund is the leading so-calle mexican organization as though it's arassroots organizati whi it iot prti- h rse the radical fringe or what used to be a radical fringe on the

immigration, the borders. there's no -- we only know few more important iss tan er atowe a cry that's how, you know, we have a civilization and a culture which is unique to our shores and was th w w f pe. 250 yrs andore. athy'rea le mexico has tremendous natural resources which they've controlled, you know, for almost a century, yet it's a basket case. anthat's because of its itlilueis s upatou can't develop a weth-producing engine there. and that's why so many mexicans want to come here. so the defitio ofitsh abwhhiou

d ouite distinction between citizens and noncitizens and you have no assimilation process and, in fact, you regard assimilation as a racist idea, tha'sthe end. in lru thend of tnt well, what happened? malldive in 1970 was a civil rights organization in el paso, xas. cotuesch were legal immigrants, you need to asimilar assimilate -- assimilate, you need to become americans now. thr political mission was to secure or legal mission to re el tme aqu ts fal immigrants, for mexicans who had come here, gone through the process and become citizens. mae,revehextation took

2rs25llo this little organization, moved it to san francisco and washington, and now it's in other states, other cities. and changed its entire anda nt'fo vgig --sot o wre for illegals, free education for illegals, you know, don't deport illegal criminals, it's for the an'smo eir o national debate in the process. and i'm simplifying because the's also morassa. this organization calls itself e chil t yit s teladi

oed the basic american idea. they hate the american idea. they want to portray america as an oppressive, racist conqring country. orza tfous ed oney into and, of course, once the venerable name of ford is on, you know, it's on your docket other foundations came in and coorations, and there's a lot thrargat,h u maldive, la raza, i mean, i could go down o whe list of them. of course, the puerto rican defense fund is another one completely created by ford which we now have a supreme cou ico kshaud etitgohe and, of course, ford is behind thehole multicultural movement in our universities.

now, the curriculum in our unersiesjaana wen bk ced "one-party class room." but i've written five books on this. the curriculum in our class rooms across the country is that america is a racist, sexist, imperialist, classist,'s siamit r a nder and ethnicity thrown in. and it's basically an attack on the very idea of an american civilization, an american tay f doe american identity. arthur schlessinger, a very famous liberal part of an older generation, wrote a book called isin aca muullis tt the very fabric of our society.

it would, there would be no multicultural curriculum in the universities if not for the ford foundation. bara oba wot idof tni ses oue new leviathan behind him. barack obama came out of columbia, and the fir job he had, his first community organizing job which is just another name for being ral theamaleal foundation. sounds religious actually. it's religious in the way that jim wallace is religious or jesse jackson or jemi ig it cagati e wo lots of government money into poverty areas. i'going to come back to getting money into poverty areas if i remember in a bit.

an wk u bse hee already as in college, already in high school he was a radical. soe was also picked up by the midwest academy. and these are funded mcarthnd ford a efr jo a rt the midwest academy is run by two '60s radicals or heather booth in particular. her husband, paul booth, is an executive with the municipal ployni alceweheert unions, government union thugs and they're very radical. the afl-cio was taken over by sociists in if 1999. john sweeney -- when iay thal telst al, they're well to the left even of socialists.

of european-style socialists. anyway, the midwt academy, she put him on theoter project acot igr hn arm oco,an tidwest academy. then he was put on the woods fund which was a traditional conservative foundation which was taken over by a lefst staffer and split in two x. who wibu tlire theod lifelong america hater, terrorist, unrepep tent. -- unrepenitent. basic to him is his absolute hatred of america. and he, ofours and obama we tcl frs. obama, of course, the most unvetted figure in american public life. but they were set on -- sat on the woods board tethe oba s th t on t e

da w i bio arthsowhi credibility was built. he was trained. the heirs, obama partnership went into the annberg fund e a9/rglld w th dedy bill ayers in which they got $50 million from the an enberg foundation. this is how out to lunch conservatives are because walter an nonbu was a conservative o gave $900 million t the th balat wer neg th his foundation giving. anyway, the annenberg challenge was a challenge from the anerndoor thfohaye did was to bring in radicals to indoctrinate k-12 students. but he never would have got the

challengmoney if he hadn't been supported by mcarthur a ese other,heseth sohi w crhtp to running for president, because where did the ground force for obama's candidacies come from in those primaries to beat hillary clinton? they came fm acorand e iucha le rn u - far-left government union run by andy stern. they gave $60 milln to the obama campaign, the unions generally -- those unions gave 100 aike.ion not to mention is is, basically, what we're facing. now, what's wrong with these foundations? i mean, you know, first of all, of course, since the howitz thnie aug gtlis alsarof

outnumbered and greatly outspent like all conservative foundations, um, there's something a little different in, like, the horowitz freedom center has 00dial rssute e onstituency. and we represent in a way that constituency. the ford foundation has no constituency, has no shareholders. it's just a board thatas tee oanr arla political profile which doesn't at all reflect the views of its founders or the money that made it. and it exists in perpetuity, and abteo rae tnon corporations have customers. they have shareholders. they also have customers. they've got a lot of people that they have to please.

ford foundation doesn't have to please anybody. andhe te tois i ymeg as stupid as they did which was to fund a terrorist organization in the middle east and, you know, get the jews upset because jewsre togmbssl city,at particularly when you're located in new york. so the ford foundation cleaned up that little mess. but that's it. i mean, i'm sure if they offended, you know, acks, they'd hav sar pem buenheperatings they do below the radar, i mean, people in this audience are, you know, well informed. i think i probably told you some things you didn't know. if you rd this book, you'll findut lototh t diw. mylf w horrified when we

put up and actually the origins of the new leviathan, oureb site we've created called discoverthenetworks.org which is eloa th l whyseerke ueid funders section of our web site, i looked, and i said fannie mae? freddie mac? i mean, these are government institutions. they're funding the left? fug radicals, radical antagonists to our system. this is not democrat anymore. cry are i'ho -er a solution, many solutions, obviously, but all these foundations exist under the tax code. the tax code says why are they

bee aprinhex exemption? raee. well, look, that's the definition. i mean, it's in so many words you promote -- the tax code says you cat do this if you're supporting a politic caidate. 'sthey de pti oro cid srt olalty that's partisan. that's not the general welfare. well, come on. you're supporting cap and trade, you're supporting open borders th w oolssingsoiz about. so the irs could just redefine what's politic and what's charitable. we know what's charitable, a hospital is charitable because it serves everybody. educatn is going to be t fondn' etion dollars went into creating an

ideology, multiculturalism, and institutionalizing it. but, you know, they put up money for program topdi pamatmen a specific curriculum which is, i mean, i'll do it crassly, i hate america curriculum, a curriculum coy., irit,clstca is a sexist, duon tye. another way, and i think this is advisable, is to sunset these fountions within, say, ten years of theiretirement of of if tou l d f, you know, if henry, when henry ford leaves the board, it shouldn't exist after that. d, you know, of course, conservatives, conservatives are always trying to do e righ

in llmld s nsti tge g there used to be three big conservative foundations that were boogiemen for the leftists. and one of them s the olin i w t-ghon. unon ts left-wing foundation that's done the right thing. i want to finish this by -- i've given it out, this government versus the people. where does this moy go tt's who te rn og d actually? when republicans are put against the wall by leftists, people on the left, they say youre selfish. blsiyh ventgrasteful, we're wasting a lot of money in the public schools, we're

wasting obamacare is incredibly wasteful. all this money that's spent on esegruss ow sr,sto which is all true. but we're always subject to the attack that we're selfish. leftists always are the victims. you don't care about poor pe.'arbbl repuicans care. there's one constituency republicans have which is taxpayers. but the argument against that is, look, okay, this was a wasteful program. but, look, it was for such a good cause. ouldt weeri di llera m enitas suc a good cause? well, what conservatives need to do is to point out how gornment destroys poor people, hoess mriroysacpe,

nerally when it gets into action. i will give you just one example which is very current which is the subprime mortgage crisis. for ten years the docra,ed by bill cntonutesal a a o, sid everybody should own a house. even if you can't afford it. i mean, they didn't put in that last thing, but everybody needs to own a house. that's the americadream. moowan oeth pressur,he they actually got on buses and hounded bank presidents in chicago. that's what obama's organization did. til th aeed damnd clndmtrn t remove all the rules for lending, all that had been built up, all the

lending procedures that had been built up over generations as what's prudent. who you lend to? hog crisis which is at the, you know, the bottom of or was a step in creating the financial cris. the financial crisis came about for otherso aelut bu mortgages which people held, mortgages which people were paying into who couldn't afford it. okay. whore the victims here? it's not justthexps. thrsin victims are all the poor people; black and hispanic and also white who were snookered by progreives into buying homes they codn't afford and lost them. trti ith r,obed rein

have your dream and then have it taken away within a couple of year actually? that is an atrocity that progressives committed through govement progra ains opagt kpl an even bigger hit th the black community when also the hispanic community but the black community in particular was what's happened to house values. on othe ea seshe yheise of the black middle class. of course, i'm told in r culture, i'm told in our culture in 1939 4% of the blac of riamanre esale le s. 4%. now 's over 50%. what a story. however, if you are on the rise, if you are just climbing out of

poverty oreven oof t ddlaha y m vent yhous the clinton/obama-inspired housing crisis took 54% of th t h oacicl shwaro them -- americans away from them, destroyed it. destroyed it. $100 billion that black americans had, afrin-americans hawas deront am nnd these progressives. that's why this new leviathan, this massive -- and, of course, they were 1% bthea atry sd o he iu c aord it --

even if you can't afford it, are responsible for. that's why it's such a threat. it's a permanent juggernaut. it exists withnd bween ecs, pe t re natnal bate and, of course, the media environment. because one thing you learn abou journalists is that they're lazy. this won'tet me a lot of -- [laughter] good press, b journalists, yo owu d atnd tiretssr the get fed. they get fed by this secondary universe of the 51(c)(3) battalions and, of course, there are just sleaze operations and smear operations like mia eric 5 iodgtgot fm soros and the clintons to smear people, but also to feed nbc, particularly nbc, and the other networks with their news which

respsiblfor wiping out $100 billion in wealth that african-americans d until th got into the act. so thank you. [appuse] >> because we're being taped, we're going to ask everyone to line up and ask questions fro the microphone. carl, you'll be first. so, pleasemake line if moreg t i've ever heard. [laughter] surely there must be some, some bright line. but the irs, your proposed remedy, the ir i understand has justck do nstirgat t tope t vu r donor lists. >> oh, of course. because, look, as i've said this

before, the left -- which includes liberals, progressives, communists, dicals, anarchists -ey'ron a min hangth w. sotmchsre talking about. they're on a mission to create the kingdom of heaven on earth, to create a classless, raceless society wherehere's no war, no poverty and so forth. orm yt lil, ton ecyt when democrats are in the white house, conservative foundations have to worry. my little 501(c)(3) was audited, and whenillary was in th ite hse, e w ar the people who concocted the story that her husband was cheating on her. the vast, that's where the vast ght-wig conspiracy comes from -- right-wing conspira comes from that peoe et

'sir mli 'seabl tnoere'oi t take back all three land. s of government -- all three branches of government, and i'm hoping that republicans will have the attention span and the cajones to actually do something out in this. haonisdotaso done. nothing. these foundations weren't looked at. it's a disenfranisemenof the ameran people. e ant xiamanoont en borders, who don't want illegals coming here and competing with them for jobs. but they don't have a vote like the fo foundation does. do t the citizens united decision has any tie-in with this and may be one of the

bright lights on the horizon? >> well, this is a basic battle between individual rights, the ghts of individuals to assele, torgize, to e,llvide that, you know, we're going to control you and, yes, i think that the citizens united decision was a great decision and that it has, obviously -- it's freed up a lotfds t aoint ecs. and it's the trench warfare between elections that determine -- it determin the framework. it would have been unthinkable 30 years ago to be talkingbout undocumented immigrants when you're talking about illegals. bon ghmiou td t geyo anoer example which is obamacare. it failed in the clinton administration. when gore ran, he was against it because itas so unpopular. itau wio,easains

pu obama ran if you'll remember, he said government control is wrong, and, you know, private is wrong, right? yet it became the centerpiece right in the mide of an economic cris steaofobs,t ame. cafo t ttis the door to the socialist future. and it was totally ideological. it was not political in the normal sense of politics. it didn't make anyind sen ts t oywa ng itu ug it was pushed through by these -- we describe this in the book -- by these foundations. >> david, with the possible exception of the bill gates foti humongous ones were founded by people who obviously believed in free enterprise. how did the left take over those

organizations? >> i give you an example of one which s, i think,ind of ths fat a $2 billion foundation, the daniels fund in colorado which we mention in our book, and it was formed by a veryseiv an ath le thple who, the board of the foundation wanted to run a professional foundatn. so where do they turn? the ford foundation. because the ford foundation has, you know, a school, and before they knew it they had a whole staf lst i mean, i happen to know people on the board. we applied, i mn, conservative applicants were dismissed and s forth. and it's happenedrtt usof that, because there

hasn't been enough publicity about what the ford foundation actually doeand what these other foundations do. that's- information is a huge, it's a huge problem. anthe secdng he as g am meers who have with, you you kn, strayed from the foundation. they didn't make the money, and they probably feel guilty for being rich, you know? there's not, you know, it's not just white gui, it's class il ay r t. you know, the rockefellers, you know, were a pretty conservative american family. peter collier and i did a book on the rockefellersome 30 years ago. eredtckle os tilhy professor at the university of vermont. he told me, he said, you know, i'm a socialist. now he's the head of the rockefeller brothers' fund.

anthund radicals. >> how would one safeguard against such use -- >> i don't think you really can if you're leaving y. it's a huge pblemle y ovfo stt sunsetting the foundation. i mean, you can't foresee what's going to go on through two, three generations. i think the, that's why i like the idea of redefining what's pocall ye juin's g et t exemption. you've got to just give to charity. and which would be hospitals. you know, i don't want to devise a reform while i'm standing here. i'm sure that some wise heads cagurethblic s eti t inh t basic solution.

the other is you've got to sunset it. you can't have wealth existing in perpetuity. and what's the problem with giving it away while yore alive? yo then a, maldive and all these open borders groups and their might. recently we have this declaration by mr. obama. there's two parts to this. can you reflecon why the mia seems to be unablto hdlean pellmmti hean tlkute y-ed view of someone who was brought here when they were 8, and wouldn't it beice to be nice to them? there's no talk about emergency room filled with illegals, no talk about public schools or the aimigrion and tng isurvege >>auitracist. that's the -- the left, look at, if i may, just throw back. i was a kid when ts was happening, andy kids were

un, emchy are by nicholas von hoffman which told the simple truth which is that 99% of the people who mccarthy interrogated were communists. that means they were part teiocorath edrioe tcold war, they wanted one of the most monstrous regimes in history to triumph over america. so whatever else you can say about mccary, he was on to something. u k? wenu ,ral f aisho and this, and he discredited the cause. but the fact is there was a huge ternal communist threat. nohevinoet hasadear un. i just watched a -- well, i didn't watch it, but i came

across a two-hour celebration of a communist hack named pete seager who bill clinton gav a meddle of freedom award t ynth cun rtt'ar americana which is what you will learn in any liberal arts college practically in the country today. that's the problem. so people in the media are scared. i mean, anybody -- even thenes o wgo re arto well, two things that are going on. one is they're scared, they don't want to be tarred and feathered wch happens to anybody. you know, i mean, the good news is that r kids in college, the yoteso treoito py bold when they get into, you know, politics, the congress and into media. that's happened already. there's a whole generation of young conservatives who aren't intimidated. but much more intimidad than covas aresole
